Chapter 607 Competing with Shirley in Swordsmanship and Accepting Shirley's Apprentice
"Pa!" Xie Yuan used his steps to subtly avoid Xili's sword edge, and then gently slapped her hand with the wooden sword in his hand.
"Clang!" Xili's hand couldn't even hold the sword firmly, and it fell directly to the ground.
Fortunately, this was a real sword, but not the swallow sword in Xili's hand. Otherwise, she would have cried to death if it was smashed like this frequently.
As soon as the blow was hit, Xie Yuan did not make a second move, but stood with his sword behind his back and looked at Xili: "You...did you understand anything from it?"
"You...you shot so fast!" Xili, who had been holding it in for a long time, rubbed her numb wrist and spoke out her truest thoughts, "And the force was so heavy, I couldn't even feel your shot at that moment."
This is the hundredth time that Xili has been knocked down by his shuriken, and every time Xili takes the lead in attacking. However, Xie Yuan is always asked to slightly stagger his steps and then attack in a curved manner. At the moment of the confrontation, he hits the opponent. The stress point of the sword made Ciri unable to bear it for a moment and let go.
Xili used her two-handed sword to deal with Ruifan's one-handed sword. She might be able to fight with him a few times, but in the end she was defeated... and it was indeed difficult for any trace to be left on him.
This gap is really too big - you must know that Xili herself also noticed it. Ruifan himself was not very familiar with the sword at the beginning. He only started to master the sword after learning from himself in every collision.
It's like saying that I am Ruifan's swordsmanship teacher at the moment, but I am still surpassed by Ruifan time and time again!
In Ciri's world, she has not come into contact with weapons like knives, but she knows that there is a corresponding weapon in her world that is similar in shape to a knife - a saber.
The saber is a single-edged sword with a curved blade. When Shirley saw Xie Yuan's habit of chopping and cutting, he knew that he really used the knife a lot.
It was hard for her to imagine that if there really was a saber in Ruifan's hand at this moment, what would be the outcome of the duel between the two?
"I won't fight you with a saber." Xie Yuan heard Xili's question and shook his head, "If I fight at a slow speed, the result will be like this, but once I speed up a little bit, I can do it even with a wooden sword. Easily chop off the head of a flesh and blood body.
Therefore, for the sake of your life and safety, I absolutely cannot do this!"
"You...you just deliberately slowed down?!" Xili's pupils suddenly shrank. She knew that Ruifan had released the water, but she didn't expect that he not only released the water, but also released it into the sea!
"Actually, aren't you letting your guard down too!"
Xie Yuan smiled nonchalantly: "I know very well that you are a guy who can travel through time and space. If you had suddenly used space teleportation to stab me in the back, I would have been defeated immediately."
"This is different!" Xili shook her head. She also received formal aristocratic education. "This is a serious swordsmanship competition, and it is not about defeating the enemy. I cannot use the power of cheating to win or lose."
"And..." At this point, Shirley scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, "I'm not mature enough to control my power, and I can't do the methods you mentioned yet."
"Haha! You have a strong sense of honor, which is good. It proves that you won't mess around, which is worthy of praise."
Xie Yuan praised Xili's spirit, and then said to her seriously: "But as one of your talents, if you don't use the attribute of time and space affinity, your strength will be greatly reduced.
Today you met a non-hostile me, and it was just a swordsmanship competition; but imagine if one day you met a bad guy who was equally skilled in swordsmanship but behaved badly. In this case, what would you do?"
"I've met him before!" Xili straightened her chest, although the expression on her face was a little lonely, "I met a bad guy like you mentioned when I was a little kid... He killed many of my friends."
"Then did you take revenge?" Xie Yuan looked at Xili who was starting to feel lost and asked calmly.
"Revenge." Xili nodded silently, with a proud expression on his face, "I took advantage of the terrain and killed him through skating. Speaking of which, skating is my best skill!"
"Oh! Really?" Xie Yuan nodded clearly, "I have skied before, but never on ice."
"It's a pity that it's summer and there's no ice around..." Xili felt a little regretful, "otherwise I could teach you how to skate."
Xie Yuan opened his mouth, but still did not tell Xili that there was an ice skating hall in the city, lest she invite him to skate.
He could see that Xili wanted to use skating, a skill that Xie Yuanchi lacked, to find a place!
However, this does not hinder Xie Yuan's teaching: "Look, you used your superior skating skills coupled with your sword skills to successfully defeat an enemy whose basic sword skills are stronger than yours. Why don't you try to train your space-time ability and sword skills?"
What about combining it to create a space-time swordsmanship?
Don’t you want to be known as the founder of the space-time swordsmanship?”
"Create a kind of space-time swordsmanship? The founder of space-time swordsmanship?" Xili muttered the word "space-time swordsmanship", and suddenly there was a fire in her eyes.
A kind of pursuit of fame and fortune began to appear in the mind of the white-haired girl, but soon the fire of ambition flashed away, and Shirley showed a depressed look: "But I don't even know how to train my
ability.
Did you know? When I first went to travel through time and space, if I couldn't control it, I might even fall onto the volcano! I really don't know how to control my ability. Maybe...maybe when I lose control,
Only then will it be very destructive...but that’s what I least want to see.”
Looking at the unhappy Xili, Xie Yuan thought for a while and then smiled quickly: "According to what you just said, you rarely have accidents when you move to the mouth of a volcano?"
"Yeah." Shirley nodded, "It's a little better now than before, but... I still can't control my abilities independently."
"Actually, you have made great progress yourself. Compared with you at the beginning, haven't you noticed?" Xie Yuan guided.
"Yes, it's much better..." Shirley also admitted this, but she still couldn't let go and was a little irritated, "But this progress is too slow, and I still can't escape the pursuit of the Wild Hunt, and I don't know
When will this kind of thing stop?"
"You have to have strength and become stronger to make these people who want to harm you stop their little actions."
Xie Yuan did not give her chicken soup, but told her the truth directly: "Your current situation is like a child walking on the street with a bag of gems, and every adult is eyeing the gems in your child's arms.
Although you are very talented, it has not been transformed into combat effectiveness, and your talent can be used by others, so the Wild Hunt will think that you are easy to bully and will hunt you down from time to time."
"What about you?" Xili looked at Xie Yuan with burning eyes, "Do you have any greedy thoughts about me?"
"It's hard to say that I don't want to have it... After all, your strategic value is very high," Xie Yuan looked at Xiri calmly, "But I believe in science more than I believe in magic. In my eyes, you are just a pitiful person who was bullied by bullies.
Girl, I was bullied when I was little, so I sympathize with you."
"Haha, thank you for your calmness. It is true that I have been hunted all year round because of my lack of ability."
Xili also laughed mockingly, but then said firmly to Xie Yuan: "But I want to refute your last point, I am not a poor girl, I will become stronger, and then defeat them so that they will stop harassing me.
Got it!"
"Anyone can say something... but it's not easy to do it."
Xie Yuan looked at Ciri steadily: "Even though I defeated the Wild Hunt in one fell swoop, I didn't become as powerful as I am now overnight.
I have gone through endless hard training and tempering during this period. In my early years, I saw a lot of hells on earth and experienced a lot of horrors between life and death. Only after I survived and survived did I gradually gain the strength I have today.
But until now, every day and every moment, I have been suffering the painful price of becoming stronger - but until now, facing some powers, I still feel small and powerless... So sometimes, I
There is no disdain for those who mess around - you have no idea how many unbearable burdens these people have experienced in life."
Xili also understood Ruifan's subtext - if you want to become stronger and be the leader of your own life instead of passively escaping, you must pay a price - and even she may not be able to bear the price.
And if you really can't stand it anymore, you might as well resume this life of running away all the time - anyway, you just need to enjoy yourself in the gaps of escaping, and move forward step by step, and maybe one day you can go home.
Maybe.
But the problem is, she just doesn't want to be so weak!
Once in her hometown, before the country was destroyed and her family was destroyed, she was lost in the forest alone. When her adoptive father Geralt arrived, she was forced to make a choice: to drink the water of Brokilon,
Transformed into a tree spirit.
But she just didn't want to become a dryad, she just wanted to follow her adoptive father Geralt. Although she didn't know why the water of Brokilon didn't work at all, she still made a choice of her own will.
After her country was ruined and her family was destroyed, and she was in danger many times, she never gave up on this, and now...she couldn't give up even more. She didn't want to be powerless in the face of the Wild Hunt anymore - she wanted to face the Wild Hunt just like she did Raines.
Hunting counterattacks!
After thinking about all this, Xili put her two-handed sword into the scabbard behind her back, then walked up to Xie Yuan seriously and bowed respectfully.
"Master!" Xili looked very sincere, "Please teach me how to become stronger."
"Even if there are irreversible consequences after becoming stronger, you will not regret it?" Xie Yuan raised his eyes and looked at Xili and asked teasingly.
"I...don't know what the cost is yet, but I need to become stronger now...at least now, I don't regret it." Ciri answered calmly.
"Okay, little slippery man! I'll give you some basic version first. You can take it back and take a look."
Although he was speechless at Xili's cunning answer, Xie Yuan still handed a paper document of "Advanced Yoga Exercises" plus a pair of glasses to Xili.
"What is this?" Xili picked up her glasses, not knowing why.
"A text translator that is matched with a language translator." Xie Yuan introduced, "I wrote it in Eastern characters and local characters, so if you need to understand it, you have to use a text translator to search it.
The key point lies in these pictures,"
Xie Yuan opened the pages of the book for Xi Li in advance and pointed to these twisted human figures: "You need to practice the movements correctly one by one. The annotations above can better help you understand the correct angles."
.”
"Ah!" Seeing the twist-like movements of the humanoid, Xili was simply shocked, "Won't people get twisted?"
"You underestimate the human body too much, just like you underestimate yourself too much."
Xie Yuan refuted Xili nonchalantly, "And a truly smart person can see the key points of these actions at a glance, but it takes a year or two for a stupid person to understand the truth from this obscure set of actions."
"How long did it take you, Ruifan?" Xili asked unconvinced.
"It took me half a year to sign up for a basic yoga class. In the second half of the year, I gradually understood the key points and reached the first stage."
Xie Yuan looked at Xili who was covering her mouth with her little hand and continued to attack: "In fact, there are thirteen stages here, and I have tried so hard, but I am still only at the seventh stage until today. It is hard to say whether I can reach the tenth stage in my lifetime.
This is a stage...so you still want to study it?"
After hesitating for a while, Xili still insisted: "I...I want to try it. I haven't seen this yet! Maybe I am a genius."
"It's up to you!" Xie Yuan said with a smile, "If you fail, or if you don't have the perseverance, I can pick a simple thing for you, it's up to you."
But I am thinking in my heart: If you can really realize the essence of this set of yoga exercises faster than me, then being so talented and intelligent can only mean that you are also a child of destiny.
If this is really the case, then I really need to teach you seriously.
Xili's answer was directly: "(#｀?′)convex"
Look, Night City is indeed a big dye vat. Even the little girl who just came here has learned to show her middle finger.
